Phone words are the officially recognised term for 13, 1300, 1800 numbers that can spell a word.

The types of numbers that are most commonly used for phone words include those beginning with the prefixes ‘1300’, and ‘1800’, which are 10 digits in length, and numbers beginning with ’13’, which are generally six digits in length.”

Phone words were officially introduced, named and accepted into Australia back in 2004 following the release of the appropriate number ranges by the Australian Communications and Media Authority in August 2004.
